• 20 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me the opportunity. I rise to support the Motion, as amended, and thank the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, the man of God, hon. Mutava Musyimi, for bringing the necessary amendments to this House to ensure that the CDF money goes to the people, as required. Hon. Speaker, Sir, in the history of this country, there has been no devolved fund that has been as accepted, absorbed, celebrated and as successful as CDF. There is no other devolved fund which has had as much impact on the life of the ... view
• 22 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek clarification on a matter that is fundamental and worrying. Freedom of Press is an integral part of our democracy, and that is why we fought for many years to achieve freedom of the Press that we enjoy in this country today. While we demand accountability from the media - this House has also not been spared what has happened - this House cannot be seen as celebrating the impunity of the nature that we have seen in the closure of media houses in our neighbouring countries. Closure of media houses reminds us of ... view
• 22 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity. I would like to start by saying that poaching is an international disaster. We need to declare it as such. We also know that tourism is a major foreign exchange earner; it has been said by many speakers in this House. I would like to thank very much hon. Ganya for bringing this Motion for debate. It could not have been more timely for us to discuss the matter of poaching, and look at what actions to take. I hope that as we discuss this Motion, the Wildlife Bill ... view

As I begin my contribution on the amendments that have been moved, I would like to note that I read bad faith in the fact that three hours after we began debating we do not have copies of this report to be able to review it adequately so that we can contribute in knowledge. view
• 14 May 2013 in National Assembly: Secondly, having had a glimpse at the report from other Members who have copies, you will realise that it lacks in detail and substance. To say the least, there are areas in this report I do not know whether they were omitted in bad faith. For example, if you look at the report, you will find that all Members who had affidavits sworn against them, except the nominee for Energy, Mr. Chirchir, have those affidavits summarized. However, the nominee for Energy, Mr. Chirchir does not have his affidavits summarized in this report. view
• 14 May 2013 in National Assembly: Having said that, I must also say that overall, the report lacks in one key fundamental principle of the Constitution; the principle of regional balance. Under the Constitution, Articles 27 and 131 say that all Kenyans are equal. However, this Cabinet that is supposed to be the face of this country reflects George Orwell’s Animal Farm. Those who have read that book know that some animals are said to be equal while others are said to be more equal than others. view
